23) INFORMATION FOR EVALUATION

This section supplements clause 52.212-1 and 52.212-2 which is included elsewhere in this request for quotes.

The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror’s initial offer should contain the offeror’s best terms from a price and technical standpoint.

However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest;

accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received.

This solicitation shall be evaluated by awarding to the quote that is technically acceptable and the lowest price.

A. TECHNICAL FACTOR:

Evaluation –Each item in Technical Requirements Table will receive one of the adjectival ratings defined below. Any criterion that receives “U” rating will result in an overall unacceptable rating for the factor and are not eligible for award.

ADJECTIVAL RATING DEFINITION

Acceptable (A) Quote clearly meets the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

Unacceptable (U) Quote does not clearly meet the minimum requirements of the solicitation.

TECHNICAL CRITERIA A or U The offeror has no active or inactive exclusions listed in their Entity Record on the System for Award Management (SAM).

In accordance with FAR 42.15, the offeror does not have any relevant Past Performance rated at “Marginal” or “Unsatisfactory”.

B. PRICE FACTOR:

Submission Instructions – Offeror shall submit a fully completed SF 1449, Pricing Schedule, or acceptable alternative as identified in 52.212-1 or elsewhere in the RFQ.

The agreed upon items and quantities will be multiplied times their respective unit prices found in the RFQ.

As part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (see FAR Clause 52.217-

8) by adding six (6) months of the offeror's final option period price to the offeror's total price. Offerors are required only to price the base and option periods. Offerors shall not submit a price for the potential six month extension of services period. The Government may choose to exercise the Extension of Services at the end of any performance period (base or option periods), utilizing the rates of that performance period.

As part of its proposal, the offeror will provide the estimated total cost (if any) incurred to comply with the enterprise Contractor Manpower Reporting Application (eCMRA) requirement. Offeror will determine, in the schedule, CLIN(s) X004, to price or not separately price the CMRA requirement. CLIN(s) X004 shall be the CLIN(s) under which the Contractor shall bill for all costs associated with the eCMRA requirement.

Evaluation – Price will not be assigned an adjectival rating; and will be evaluated to determine if the offeror quoted price is fair, reasonable, and balanced. The government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if prices are significantly unbalanced. Price shall be evaluated at estimated quantities multiplied times their respective unit price.

Unrealistically Low Prices: Prices quoted may be reviewed to determine whether they reflect a lack of technical understanding of the requirements and to assess the risk inherent in an offeror’s quoted prices.

Unrealistically low quoted prices, initially or subsequently, may be grounds for rejection for this solicitation.

Unbalanced Pricing: Offeror is cautioned against submitting quote that contains unbalance pricing.

Unbalanced pricing exists when, despite an acceptable total evaluated price, the price of one or more contract line items is significantly over or understated as indicated by the application of cost or price analysis techniques.

The Government shall analyze offers to determine whether they are unbalanced with respect to separately priced line items or subline items. Quotes that are determined to be unbalanced may be rejected if the contracting officer determines that the lack of balance poses an unacceptable risk to the Government.

24) ALTERNATE DISPUTES RESOLUTION: In furtherance of Federal policy and the Administrative Dispute Resolution Act of 1990 (ADR Act), Public Law 101-552 and FAR Clause 52.233-1, Subparagraph (d) (2) (1)

(B) (2), the Contracting Officer will try to resolve all post award acquisition issues in controversy by mutual agreement of both parties. Interested parties are encouraged to use alternative dispute resolution procedures to the maximum extent practicable, in accordance with the authority and requirements of the ADR Act.

25) CONTRACT PERFORMANCE:

a. Purpose. IAW with FAR Subpart 42.1500 contractor past performance information (PPI) is relevant information for future source selection purposes regarding a contractor’s actions under previously awarded contracts. It includes, for example, the contractor's record of conforming to contract requirements and to standards of good workmanship; the contractor's record of forecasting and controlling costs; the contractor's adherence to contract schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance; the contractor's history of reasonable and cooperative behavior and commitment to customer satisfaction; and generally, the contractor's business-like concern for the interest of the customer. Contractor past performance information is one of the tools that support Army efforts to acquire best value and is used to evaluate performance risk in source selection. The feedback provided by the government to the contractor in collecting PPI, and the knowledge that PPI will be used in future source selection decisions, should result in improved performance and a greater contractor focus on customer satisfaction.

b. Assessment Period. Performance Assessment Reports (PAR) shall be prepared IAW AFARS Subpart 42 upon physical completion of the contract. If the period of performance will exceed 18 months, an “interim” assessment report shall be prepared at the completion of 12 months performance and annually thereafter until the contract is physically complete. An out-of-cycle or “addendum” report may be prepared if there is a need to record an extraordinary event prior to the next regularly scheduled evaluation or if it is necessary to report a meaningful occurrence during the period between physical completion of the contract and contract closeout.

Additionally, addendum reports may be prepared to record contractor’s performance relative to contract closeout and other administrative requirements (e.g. final indirect cost proposals, technical data, etc.).

c. Completion Due Date. The government will complete the PAR within 60 days after the end of the assessment rating period.

d. Evaluators. The Contracting Officer and the Contracting Officer’s Representative will jointly complete the performance assessment.

e. Contracts Performance Elements. The contractor’s performance shall be assessed in accordance with elements and rating system set forth in AFARS Subpart 42.

f. Contractor Review. The Contracting Officer will furnish a copy of the PAR to the contractor requesting that the contractor submit comments, rebutting statements, or additional information to the Contracting Officer within 30 calendar days of receipt. Failure to respond within the designated timeframe will be taken as agreement with the assessment.

g. Contract Concurrence. Where a contractor concurs with, or takes no exception to a PAR, such report shall be considered final and releasable for use in source selection and other deliberative purposes.

h. Contractor Rebuttal. Where a contractor takes exception to a performance report, the Contracting Officer will review the contractor’s rebuttal or comments and make appropriate changes. If the Contracting Officer makes changes, the changed rating will be reflected in the narrative. The Contracting Officer will make all reasonable efforts to reconcile the report and the contractor’s comments. However, it is not necessary that they reach agreement on the report where such is clearly impracticable. The contractor’s rebuttal or comments shall be made part of the PAR.

i. Resolving Disagreements between the Government and the Contractor. In the event disagreements between the parties regarding the PAR occur, the Contracting Officer will review the rebuttal and make appropriate changes. If no agreement is reached, the PAR is forwarded to the Reviewing Official (Director of Contracting) along with the Contracting Officer’s Findings and Recommendation and supporting documentation. The decision of the Reviewing Official is final. Copies of the PAR and the contractor’s response and review comments, if any, shall be retained as part of the evaluation.

j. Release of Contractor Performance Evaluation Information. The evaluation will not be released to other than government personnel and the contractor whose performance is evaluated. The performance evaluation information will be input into the applicable module within Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) database (or Government system in use at time of the evaluation).

k. Source Selection Information. Departments and agencies will electronically access the PAR information to support future award decisions.

26) REQUIRED INSURANCE:

In accordance with FAR clause 52.228-5 entitled, “Insurance--Work on a Government Installation” the following minimum amounts of insurance are required.

Workmen’s Compensation As required by state laws

Employer’s Liability Insurance $100,000 per accident General Liability Insurance - Bodily Injury Liability $500,000 per occurrence

1.6 General Information

1.6.1 Quality Control: Quality Control is the responsibility of the contractor. The contractor is responsible for the delivery of quality services/supplies to the Government (see FAR 52.212-4, Contractor Inspection Requirements). A formal Quality Control Plan (QCP) is not required for this commercial service. However, the contractor shall maintain an inspection system commensurate with commercial practices to ensure the Contractor only tenders for acceptance those items or services that conform to the requirements of this contract.

1.6.2 Quality Assurance: The government shall evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). This plan is a Government only document primarily focused on what the Government must do to assure that the contractor has performed in accordance with the requirements of the contract. The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. Non-conforming services shall be re-performed at no increase in contract price.

If non-conforming services are recurring, cannot be re-performed, or the services fail to achieve the Performance Requirements Summary (PRS) acceptable quality level (AQL) (see A.1.), the Government may reject the nonconforming service(s) and document the contractor’s performance record accordingly. The Government may also issue a Contract Discrepancy Report (CDR) in which the contractor will be required to respond with the development of a corrective action plan (CAP) which identifies the root cause, corrective action (CA) for the root cause, CA for the specific nonconformance, and the date the CAs will be complete. The Government may also reduce the payment to the contractor IAW the PRS, or reduce payment to reflect the value of the services performed, or may perform the services and charge the Contractor for any related cost incurred, or may terminate this contract for default.

1.6.2.1 Nonconforming Supplies or Services: When a Contractor’s performance does not meet Contract requirements and/or approved work schedules and/or timeframes it is considered a nonconformance.

Nonconformance shall be classified in one of three categories: level I (Minor), level II (Major) or level III (Critical).

The Government may re-inspect work designated for re-performance or late performance, and the Contractor may be held liable for any damages sustained by the Government including, for example, the costs associated with re-inspection.

1.6.2.1.1 Level I (Minor) non-conformance: is defined as a non-conformance that is not likely to materially reduce the usability of the supplies or services for their intended purpose, or is a departure from established standards having little bearing on the effective use or operation of the supplies or services. Minor non-conformance usually can be corrected on the spot, where no further corrective action (CA) response is necessary, and can be issued by the COR to the contractor either through a verbal or written non-conformance report. Minor non-conforming services shall be re-performed within a specified time frame at no increase in contract price. If minor non-conformances are recurring or re-performance is not completed in full and within the specified time a Level II non-conformance may be issued to the contractor by the Contracting Officer (KO).

1.6.2.1.2 Level II (Major) non-conformance: is defined as a non-conformance, other than critical, that is likely to result in failure of the supplies or services, or to materially reduce the usability of the supplies or services for their intended purpose. Recurring Minor non-conformances, or a non-responsive contractor, indicating a trend or failure of the contractor’s quality control, can also be classified as a Major non-conformance. Major non-conformance’s shall result in the issuance of a written CDR from the KO to the contractor requiring the development of a CAP by the contractor which identifies the root cause, CA for the root cause, CA for the specific non-conformance and the date CAs will be completed.

1.6.2.1.3 Level III (Critical) non-conformance: is defined as a non-conformance that is likely to result in hazardous or unsafe conditions for individuals using, maintaining, or depending upon the supplies or services; is likely to prevent performance of a vital agency mission; is for a repeated or uncorrected level II CDRs; or is for a non-responsive contractor to a level II CDR. Critical non-conformances shall result in the issuance of a written CDR to the contractor requiring the development of a CAP by the contractor which identifies the root cause, CA for the root cause, CA for the specific non-conformance and the date CAs will be completed.

1.6.2.1.4 The contractor will be notified of Government inspection results. The contractor shall acknowledge receipt of the inspection results. The contractor may be notified of inspection results verbally. Verbal notifications of defective work will be confirmed in writing. When Government inspectors are unable to contact the contractor to notify the contractor of inspection results, acceptance or rejection of work will be made on the basis of the initial inspection.

1.6.2.1.5 Performance Evaluation Meetings; the Project Manager shall meet with the COR prior to start of the contract. However, meetings will be held whenever deficiencies are noted by the COR. A mutual effort will be made to resolve all problems identified.

1.6.3 Federal Government Holidays: Except as noted in the Schedule of Work, work shall not be performed on the following holidays or on holidays observed in lieu thereof.

1.6.4 Unforeseen Installation Closures: meaning when the Government facility is closed due to local or national emergencies, administrative closings, or similar Government directed facility closings. Contractor will be notified by the COR of an installation closure. For other than firm fixed price contracts, the contractor will not be reimbursed when the government facility is closed for the above reasons. The Contractor must at all times maintain an adequate workforce for the uninterrupted performance of all tasks defined within this PWS when the Government facility is not closed for the above reasons. When hiring personnel, the Contractor shall keep in mind that the stability and continuity of the workforce are essential. When an unforeseen installation closure occurs on a regularly scheduled day of work, the Government shall have the following options:

1.6.4.1 To require the Contractor to perform the work on the following day unless the following day is a Saturday or Sunday and routine work is not scheduled for Saturday or Sunday.

1.6.4.2 To reschedule the work on any day satisfactory to both parties.

1.6.5 Hours of Operation: The Contractor shall normally perform work during normal duty hours, 7:30a.m. to 4:00p.m. Periodic work, such as tree pruning and Spring/Fall cleanup may be performed other than normal duty hours. Arrangements for work performed during other than normal duty hours shall be made with the COR

1.6.6 Key Control: The Contractor shall establish and implement methods of ensuring that all keys issued to the Contractor by the Government are not lost, or misplaced, and are not used by unauthorized persons. No keys issued to the Contractor by the Government shall be duplicated. The Contractor shall develop procedures covering key control that will be included in his/her quality control plan. NOTE: All references to keys include key cards.

1.6.6.1 In the event keys, other than master keys, are lost or duplicated, the Contractor shall, upon direction of the Contracting Officer, re-key or replace the affected lock or locks; however, the Government, at its option, may replace the affected lock or locks or perform re-keying. When the replacement of locks or re-keying is performed by the Government, the total cost of re-keying or the replacement of the lock or locks shall be deducted from the monthly payment due the Contractor. In the event a master key is lost or duplicated, all locks and keys for that system shall be replaced by the Government and the total cost deducted from the monthly payment due the Contractor.

1.6.6.2 The Contractor may be required to replace, re-key or reimburse the Government for replacement of locks or re-keying as a result of Contractor losing keys. In the event a master key is lost or duplicated, all locks and keys for that system shall be replaced by the Government and the total cost deducted from the monthly payment due.

1.6.6.3 The Contractor shall report the occurrences of a lost key immediately to the COR no later than the next Government Business day.
